Safety
All terrain (mud, damp grass, ...)
This mode, when moving off, allows
considerable spin on the wheel with the least
grip to optimise clearing of the mud and to
regain grip. At the same time, the wheel with
the most grip is controlled in such a way as to
transmit as much torque as possible.
When moving, the system optimises wheel spin
to respond to the driver's requirements as fully
as possible.
(mode active up to 50 mph (80 km/h))
F Place the knob in this position.

Sand
This mode allows little spin on the two driving
wheels at the same time to allow the vehicle to
move forward and limit the risks of getting stuck
in the sand.
(mode active up to 75 mph (120 km/h))
F Place the knob in this position.
Do not use the other modes on sand as
the vehicle may become stuck.
You can deactivate the ASR
and DSC systems by turning
the knob to the "OFF" position.
The ASR and DSC systems will no longer
act on the engine operation or the brakes
in the event of an involuntary change of
trajectory.
These systems are reactivated
automatically from 30 mph (50 km/h) or
every time the ignition is switched on.
Recommendations
Your vehicle is designed principally to
drive on tarmac roads but it allows you to
occasionally drive on other less passable
terrain.
However, it does not permit off-road
driving such as:
- crossing and driving on terrain which
could damage the underbody or strip
away components (fuel pipe, fuel
cooler...) due to obstacles or stones in
particular,
- driving on terrain with steep gradients
and poor grip,
- crossing a stream.
